Solid choice for groups Paloma I is a 14-metre motor boat that works well for small groups or families wanting a relaxed, engine-powered escape, no sailing experience needed. With three cabins and eight berths, you've got comfortable sleeping for most group sizes, and the teak finishes give her a classic, well-maintained feel.

Practical onboard kit She's equipped with modern essentials: chart plotter for confident navigation, Wi-Fi to stay connected, and thoughtful extras like stand-up paddle boards and TV. The teak cockpit and deck suggest good upkeep, so you can expect decent comfort during coastal cruising.

Value and access A zero deposit is refreshingly honest and removes friction at booking, you're only paying the charter fee. As a 1990 motor boat, she's vintage enough to have character but proven enough to be reliable; just be aware that age means you're not getting the latest hull design or fuel efficiency of newer builds.

One fair caveat At 14 metres with an engine (not sails), fuel costs on longer days can add up, so factor that into your budget if you're planning extended cruising rather than day trips or short hops.

The marina & destination

Based at Marina Polesana, in Pula, Croatia. Paloma I is operated by Yacht Charter Paloma.

Sv. Katarina, Ul. Vallelunga 90

Why this is a great starting point

Marina Polesana in Pula sits at the northern gateway to the Adriatic, positioning you well for week-one cruising through the Istrian Peninsula and down towards the central Dalmatian islands. Light northeasterly winds typically prevail in summer, making the sail south to Rovinj, Vrsar, and the Pakleni Islands straightforward, with plenty of sheltered anchorages and working fishing villages to explore. The marina itself offers good facilities and a calm home base before you venture into deeper cruising grounds.

Can Paloma I be rented with or without a skipper?

You can charter Paloma I bareboat (you skipper) if you hold the relevant sailing licence, or hire a professional skipper alongside the yacht. The choice is yours when you request the quote.

What sailing licence do I need to charter Paloma I?

Bareboat charter typically requires a recognised sailing licence (RYA Day Skipper, ICC, ASA, or equivalent) plus a VHF radio licence. The exact requirements depend on the country of charter — we confirm with the operator when you enquire.

What's included in the charter price?

The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance for the dates booked. Tourist tax, transit log (final cleaning + bed linen), fuel, food, marina fees during the trip, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are normally extra and paid at the base.

What additional costs should I expect at the base?

Typical mandatory extras are the transit log (often €200–€350), tourist tax (a small per-person-per-day fee), and a refundable security deposit (often €1,500–€5,000 depending on the yacht). Optional extras like a skipper, hostess, paddle board, or early check-in are listed on the quote.

How does the security deposit work?

The deposit is held by the operator at check-in (usually card pre-authorisation) and refunded after check-out if the yacht is returned without damage. Many operators offer a deposit-waiver insurance product that reduces the held amount in exchange for a smaller non-refundable premium.

Can I cancel my charter booking?

Cancellation terms vary by operator. Most allow cancellation with a full refund if requested more than 60–90 days before the start date, with progressive penalties closer to departure. Some operators offer a flexible-cancellation insurance product when you book.

Is the yacht insured?

Yes — every yacht is insured by the operator against damage and third-party liability. The insurance covers the yacht itself; personal effects and trip cancellation are not covered and are worth insuring separately.

What documents do I need to bring?

You'll need your passport, sailing licence (if chartering bareboat), VHF radio licence, and proof of payment. The operator will send a check-in form ahead of time covering crew details and any special requests.

What payment methods are accepted?

Charter fees are normally paid by bank transfer in advance (often a 50% deposit at booking, balance 30 days before charter). On-base extras are usually paid by card or in cash.
